Dog tales

Lord Mandelson obviously thinks adopting is a good one. But does the underdog ALWAYS get our support? And when does an underdog become a lame duck anyway...

Are you someone who's been in that underdog position and triumphed or failed miserably? Maybe you continue to support an underdog and are always disappointed? Drop us a line.

Good morning.

I feel a bit bad now for saying that about Mantovani. Here's a photo of the great man to make up for it.

Mark Damazar's blog is here.

What else am I on about today? Yes....if you have other tales of going to Uni..feel free to share them here. Alternatively, just look at Mr Mantovani and remember him.

Now The Guardian demands better weather.

Your stories are the stuff out of which iPM is made. This week, PM Listener Julie emailed in to say, "I try to listen to the radio weather forecast but find my attention drifting away so I often miss our region. Should I switch to tv forecasts?"

We asked if Julie was alone in this, and a hailstorm (with sunny patches) of comments followed. We broadcast comments from listeners Paula Walker, Roy Freeman, John Oats, Luke Ritchie, Gareth Jameson, Janice Betson, John Saunders, Jill Makinson-Sanders, Isabelle Devereux, Gloria Calloway, Matthew Bentley, Mary Jane and Justin Gray, but the final word went to listener Denis McKeown who is a cognitive psychologist researching auditory memory at the University of Leeds.
